Writing Community in the Making

If you haven't signed up for the Gearin' Up to Get an Agent Blogfest, now's your time!

I am so head over heels in love with writing and writers.  When I first began this journey, I am ok with admitting I was in my own little bubble.  I hadn't the first idea of how to connect with other writers, let alone already published authors.  I didn't see how any writer would ever want to hang with a lowly little newbie like me. 

Fast forward a few years and I see what a load of bull honky I've been feeding myself all these years.  I am meeting writers left and right, learning that many have the same insecurities, dreams, challenges and goals that I have.  I love the writing community I have stumbled upon through blogging and other means.  It has opened my eyes to so much learning to be had and friends to be made and I only want that to grow.

This is where a fellow writing friend of mine comes in.  She is a work horse and I gawk at all she does.  One of those things is her starting a site that is in short, SPECTACULAR!  Time 4 Mommy is loaded with lovely ladies, talk, advice and giveaways. 

My absolute faves there are:
- The writing forum  which include a writer's chat in A Writer's Block, Creative Writing Prompts and a Critique Group.

- I'm also a fan...and contributor (though I've been a major slacker lately with all that is on my plate) of the Books Section.  There you will find book reviews, hops and a book club.  This months book we are reading is Pathfinder by Orson Scott Card just in case you were wondering.

This is a new and very quickly growing community.  I advise you stop over and join in the conversation.  There is nothing like watching a diamond in the rough turn into the shiny jewel we all see in the store.  This site is a diamond in the rough people so come and join us writers for some fun, learning and of course, gabbing!
